At the end of the 21st century, the future of humanity hangs in the balance, caught between the radioactive waste of a half century of nuclear wars and the repressive authority of the Republic. Angels sacrifice their wings to join a secret fraternity of freedom fighters, risking classification as mutants and consignment to the Republic's slave dens. Each warrior is a volunteer, but no angel anticipates the full cost of his fall.
The eyes of the Republic are everywhere.
Lilia Desjardins has never played by the rules and she isn't about to start when her estranged husband’s death is declared an accident. Lilia knows Gid better than that, and if anyone is owed justice, it's the most decent man she's ever known. She leaves all she knows to risk the dark heart of the Republic—only to find that she herself has been targeted by forces unknown and that her deepest secret has not only been uncovered but will be used against her.
Adam Montgomery will do anything to complete his earthly mission and return to the existence he knows, even if he has to seduce the enigmatic Lilia Desjardins. But when his contact is murdered and he must rely upon Lilia’s silence to save him from the slave dens, Adam knows that his wings might be only his first sacrifice.
As danger and intrigue surround them, Lilia and Adam realize they must work together—body, mind and soul—in order to save the world.
This edition includes an excerpt from GUARDIAN.
This series was previously published under the pseudonym Claire Delacroix.
Fallen The Prometheus Project Book 1 edition by Deborah Cooke Claire Delacroix Romance eBooks
Lilia Desjardins is convinced that her husband was murdered and has set out to find the truth. Her search takes her into dangerous situations and her investigation has not gone unnoticed by the Republic or the handsome police officer Adam Montgomery. Adam is an angel who has volunteered to go to earth for a mission and will do what it takes to complete it. He is attracted to Lilia and they both soon realize that in order to find their answers they will need to work together.It took me a while to get into this book, not because I didn't like it but because it wasn't what I expected. This book felt more Sci-Fi than Paranormal Romance. It is set in the future after there have been nuclear attacks. People born with birth defects are labeled as Shades. Shades are looked down upon and are not even considered humans. Lilia is a Shade hunter. Instead of turning them in and having them become slaves or medical experiments, she takes them to the circus where they are paid, allowed to have names and a sense of normalcy. I really liked Lilia's compassion towards the Shades and the strong opinions she has for those who mistreat them. Adam is set on fulfilling his mission so he can get his wings back and go home. Of course the arrival of Lilia in his life starts to make him change his mind. I didn't care too much for Adam's character. I did not dislike him but he just felt kind of bland. He did his duty whether it was for the police department or his mission and that's about it. I had a hard time feeling the love between Lilia and Adam. I knew they lusted for each other and their scenes together were hot but it didn't come off as love to me. Maybe if they appear in future books, I might change how I feel about it.
In the future the rights for women have taken a giant step back. The government has said it is woman's clothing that is to blame for sexual attacks so they are required to be completely covered from head to toe when in public. No veils are required but are highly recommended. I liked reading how Lilia walked the fine line of this ridiculous law. Also, every move you made is watched by the government. There is no such thing as privacy in future depicted in Fallen.
There is a supernatural element to Fallen of course with the angels. They are coming to earth to try and help save us from the corrupt who wish to cause more suffering for profit and greed. There were some interesting twists and what the Shades are put through and how they are treated really tugs at your heart. This was an interesting start to a series I look forward to continuing.

Fallen The Prometheus Project Book 1 edition by Deborah Cooke Claire Delacroix Romance eBooks Reviews
Fallen is book one in the Prometheus Project.
At the end of the 21st century the future if humanity hangs in the balance caught between radioactive waste and the repressive authority of the Republic.
Angels sacrifice their wings to join a secret fraternity of freedom fighters. Thus we meet Adam Montgomery, a new volunteer in the guise of a homicide cop.
Lilia Desjardins an opinionated outspoken rebel is the perfect match for Adam. Once they decide to trust each other which took half of the book they work well together.
This is an interesting book - presenting a future that is, unfortunately possible. There were some concepts, future equipment, societal levels and more that were not fully explained and confusing. This couple got away with a great many things considering the "big brother is watching" theme.
This is not an easy weekend read, it needs time and thought and is clearly not for everyone. It's a mix of science fiction, futuristic, romance and I'm not sure what else. I might read book two just to see if some of the things that confused me are explained or clarified.
Copy gifted by publisher in exchange for an honest review.
I was given this book in exchange for an honest review.
I was not sure I was going to like this mainly because it takes place in the future and I love historical romance. I have read several stories from this author and have loved all of them so far. I kept thinking that since it takes place in the future it will not be to my satisfaction as the historical romance novels are.
There were moments I was not sure I wanted to continue till I read the next paragraph. When I got to the next chapter I was looking for more action and intrigue. It was not heavy into sex but mystery, intrigue and murder. By the time I finished reading this story I was ready for book two. I found their is a book four and asked myself "Where was I when this series came out?"
To me it is a dark yet exciting and compelling story of mankind. When we think we are moving forward we find that we have moved back and the only difference is technology. Good and Evil are everywhere and always at war.
The characters are strong and likable, I found myself not liking the same people as Lilia. I found I I was afraid who to trust just like Montgomery. The suspense of Gid's death was driving me crazy. I really thought I had the murderer at the convention but I had the wrong person.
The ending was a complete surprise and so different from what I thought would happen.
Can't wait to read the next book in the series, Claire I look forward to reading the future you have created.
Received free book from publisher for honest review.
Hummmm this was just not what I expected not that it wasn't very good it's just very different from what I'm used to with author. This book was darker and grittier and more out there on the edge than other books I've read from this author.
I enjoyed it but it did take. Me a while to kind of wrap my head around the story.
Lilia and Montgomery were a very good match with them working towards the same end but thinking they were working alone. The world is so real with familiar names but the damage is so extreme it really made me think. I am anxiously waiting the next book to carry on with this world
